Soaring Sandwing plainscycling
I am unable to plaincycle soaring sandwing. the card as written has plainscycling, however when I hover over the creature, the reminder text does not show. Other land cycling creatures have the reminder text show for their cycling or land cycling ability.

I have encountered the same issue, I cannot Plainscycle my Soaring Sandwing. Other landcycling creatures work in Alchemy. It did determine the outcome of my premier draft game, as my opponent was able to tempo me because I was unable to get a 5th land that did not come into play tapped. Having the creature and the life did not matter in my case.

Hasn't determined the outcome of a draft game yet for me (the one I lost I was going to lose anyway; the other I won despite the bug) but this needs to be fixed.

Lost a match during a draft where I was unable to plaincycle using soaring sandwing plainscycling ability. I had enough mana (3 mana available and it cost only 2), had the card in hand, but the game wouldn't let me use it.
I was playing on PC and it happened after the update (december 5th of 2023). In the print it's clear that I should be able to use it, but the card isn't highligthed (I can't play it)

Also encountered this during my draft game, thankfully didn't end up mattering, but going to wait to play finish my draft until this is patched since I actually really need the fixing in my deck.
Interestingly, I tried testing the other landcycling cards and can confirm that Alabaster Host Intercessor is also broken, but Eagles of the North does function correctly, along with each other form of landcycling that I've tried. So Plainscycling {2} specifically seems to be broken?

After the update I downloaded today 12/5/23, I was unable to plainscycle my soaring sandwing. I have two mana available, I tried to drag the card out like before to cycle it and the game wants me to cast it. It doesn't give me the opportunity to plainscycle anymore. I lost my last game of a draft because I was stuck on two mana and was unable to cycle this card to get the third land. My opponent in the same game was able to mountain cycle their card. Not sure what I was doing wrong there but it wasn't prompting me to be able to.

1. Have board state as in attached screen
2. Tried to plaincycle Soaring Sandwing for couple of turns
3. After playing card there should be menu allowing me to choose if I want to plaincycle or play the card. There was no such menu it only shows me that i cannot pay for the card
4. Do not see any card that could interfere with plaincycle ability -

Verifying that plainscycling is broken, but other landcycling abilities still work. See pictures.

I just updated the app on my phone and in my subsequent game was unable to landcycle. I was just playing in a premier draft event with a black/white deck and kept a hand with several swamps because I had a soaring sandwing in my hand and early white interaction in cosmium blast. Imagine my surprise when my second and third turns went by unable to play any cards or landcycle my soaring sandwing.

I'm having the same issue. It's affected two of my games as of yet, sending a screenshot of the second time, showing Runaway Boulder as a card that can be cycled, and Soaring Sandwing as a card that can't be cycled. Had to cycle the Boulder instead, not guaranteeing my plains.

I had this issue just come up in an LCI draft - it would not let me plainscycle and I was stuck on 2 lands as a result. Conceded the game

Steps to reproduce:
1. Have Soaring Sandwing in hand
2. Have enough mana to activate landcycling ability
3. Try to play Sandwing's cycling ability
Expected Result:
Two choices - play as a creature or activate an ability
Actual Result:
Only able to play Sandwing as a creature

after looking at a few other cards, Alabastor Host Intercessor also does not have the reminder text, even though it is written on the card.
